old topic I know...but what is a klicket and what does it look like?
rewired my 110 and when I turn up the thermostat nothing happens....the thermostat according to the picture is wired from both sides to the neutral?
The Thermostat serves the same function as a light switch, ( but it's the thermal sensing bulb that turns it "on") with that in mind, it's wired in series with the "hot" side of the line going into it & then it passes that "switched-hot" along to the compressor's start-run relay/terminal #2, then the common terminal returns through the "Klicket"/thermal overload device ( think as it as a circuit breaker) & back to the neutral side of the line completing the circuit.
Physically it looks like a small round black plastic cylinder about the size of a plastic soda bottles screw-off top with two electrical terminals sticking out of the top, with one side having a short black wire & terminal attached that fit onto the "common" pin-terminal of the compressor, & the other having a screw-terminal or a push-on type terminal to attach to the neutral side of the wiring harness. it's often held physically to the side of the compressors main body by a flexible spring-type of fastener just above or along side of the compressor's main pin-terminals, and inside the usual plastic protective wiring cover on the compressor.
Also note that some machines put the thermostat in series with the neutral side of the line feeding the compressor, but it serves the same purpose as listed above.
